Greetings NBLSA Family, It is a pleasure to serve as your 2013-2014 National Director of Education and Career Development. The Education Committee has been working diligently on the scholarship process for this academic year. There are three scholarship opportunities available for NBLSA members: 1) Rodney Pulliam Memorial Scholarship, 2) Sandy Brown Memorial Scholarship, and 3) NBLSA Outstanding Student Leader Scholarship. NBLSA Pre-Law Members are eligible to apply for the Nelson Mandela Scholarship. In this guide, each scholarship is outlined with the requirements and documents that must be submitted to apply. Scholarship essays will be graded upon their content, organization and style. The applications will open on December 31, 2013 and must be submitted by the extended deadline of January 21, 2014 at 11:59 p.m. EST. All scholarship recipients will be notified via email in early February 2014. In addition to receiving a financial award, recipients will be announced in the NBLSA Communications Blast and recognized on March 15, 2014 at our National Convention in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. The National Black Law Students Association is comprised of many talented students who are committed to excellence in achievement. This is an excellent opportunity for you to be recognized and rewarded for your hard work and dedication to excellence. We are looking forward to receiving your scholarship applications! Go to www.nblsa.org/scholarships to apply. In NBLSA Love, Dalourny Nemorin
